K. BRENER

K. BRENER
            He was in the Kovno ghetto.  Two poems of his remain extant: “Lebn” (Life” and “Lid fun vesherai” (Song of the laundry).  In the latter, he described backbreaking labor in the ghetto laundry and mentioned the names of the overseers and tormentors.  His fate remains unknown.
